Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

We were seated right away and brought chips and salsa, which were delicious. Then we order margaritas which are not listed on the menus but they are best margs I've had in Denver in quite some time and at only $6 each, you can't beat them. My husband got the macho burrito which was HUGE and very tasty (I stole a few bites). I got the camarones aldabos which was pretty spicy but I couldn't stop eating it. Give this place a shot of you're in the neighborhood. You won't regret it!

I hadn't heard of this place until I noticed it on yelp so decided to give it a try based on the solid 5 star reviews. Immediately upon walking in, I saw why everyone was loving it. Tony was our waiter and is the nicest person I've talked to in a long time. He gave great recommendations and was 100% focused on making sure that we had good food and a good experience. The chips and salsa were great, the entrees were flavorful and amazing with high quality meat, and the churros for desert were the best I've had outside of Mexico. The food is simple, but cooked right and everything we ordered was prepared exactly how you'd want it if you made it in your own kitchen. Prices are spot on as well. This place just got into our regular rotation, which is hard to do, especially for mexican food.

Oh my god! I think I found my new favorite Mexican restaurant in the whole wide world. I highly recommend the smothered macho burrito. The margaritas are fairly tasty, and come with us some little umbrellas like you would find in a tropical resort island drink. For dessert, we tried the churros. They were awesome. Great staff, clean facility, good location by Mile High Stadium, all around fantastic place.

While suffering from the usual Mexican food withdrawals, I desperately turned to Yelp to guide me to refuge, and now I'm at El Paisa devouring enchiladas and shrimp adobada served by, quite possibly, the friendliest man on the planet. Definitely not the fanciest place in Denver, but definitely an awesome little gem on Federal.

My girlfriend and I just ate here on Tuesday. We stopped by on a whim because we were in the neighborhood and saw the other Yelp reviews. This place is a wonderful find! The food was delicious!! I got the steak tacos, and my g/f got a tampiquena (sp?) plate. We both LOVED the food. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The portions are huge! We both had a little leftover to take home. Our bill for two large meals, churros, and 2 beers apiece was under $40. We are definitely coming back here.

This place is excellent. Got the Paisa Combo plate. The Chicharonnes were cooked perfectly. Enchilada sauce is some of the best I've had. And man was the service great. Don't live close to it otherwise it would be a regular. Highly recommend the Paisa combo. It's like a sampling of Mexican fare. Has an enchilada (corn tortilla), bean burrito (flour), and a Chile relleno. Chicharonnes are sprinkled on the bean burrito. Oh and the salsa is top notch.

I am a man of few words so all I can say is everything, from the food, the margarita, and the service were excellent. It is not fancy but I loved it.
(5)Savy P.
Delicious food and super friendly folks! I love the seafood options! The spicy shrimp is great. They also have frequent specials.
(5)Catherine B.
Good fresh food, quick service, and friendly. Close to Children's Museum. Only thing they're missing is our favorite cheese sauce.

What a great little place for awesome Mexican food and outstanding service! My friend recommended the place.....we stopped in for breakfast one cold snowy Sunday morning. We were greeted so warmly by the owner, offered hot chocolate in the cutest mugs from Mexico! The food is delishious.....the green chile is so tasty and not too hot.....just right! We have since been back for lunch and dinner. The prices are very reasonable. Great service, awesome food and resonable prices......what more can you ask for? My new favorite place!
(5)Jorge A.
Really good food. I have tried the tripitas. Definitely the best I have found so far and some tortas which are pretty good as well. Also something that really stood out to me was the owner. Probably the kindest person ever. He waits tables greets everyone and is just an awesome person. I would reccomend this place especially if you like good food with exceptional service not only from the owner but from the staff! Also getting a cheesecake for free was a plus!
(5)Vincent P.
Fabulous, friendly service paired with flavorful authentic Mexican cuisine. We've only just begun to experiment with the menu, but everything that came out of the kitchen looked absolutely scrumptious! We can't wait to come back for breakfast!!
(5)Weston T.
Pretty solid Mexican food for Denver. I'm from Southern California, so I'm pretty qualified to make this assertion. Breakfast burritos are also a good hangover fix, especially for $3-$4.
(4)Celeste M.
This place was such a pleasant surprise. We dropped in after a game at Mile High and had some of the best Mexican food we've had in a long time!
(5)Linda W.
Excellent food! Loved the combo and the bean burrito. Friendly. Very clean! Will return for sure! Anxious to try more authentic Mexican dishes!

This place is delightful! Super friendly, totally affordable and incredibly delicious. We all enjoyed our meals so much and the telenovelas on the TV were super entertaining.
